# Split2(matcher, mapper, options)

![ci](https://github.com/mcollina/split2/workflows/ci/badge.svg)

Break up a stream and reassemble it so that each line is a chunk.
`split2` is inspired by [@dominictarr](https://github.com/dominictarr) [`split`](https://github.com/dominictarr/split) module,
and it is totally API compatible with it.
However, it is based on Node.js core [`Transform`](https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#stream_new_stream_transform_options).

`matcher` may be a `String`, or a `RegExp`. Example, read every line in a file ...

``` js
  fs.createReadStream(file)
    .pipe(split2())
    .on('data', function (line) {
      //each chunk now is a separate line!
    })

```

`split` takes the same arguments as `string.split` except it defaults to '/\r?\n/', and the optional `limit` paremeter is ignored.
[String#split](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/split)

`split` takes an optional options object on it's third argument, which
is directly passed as a
[Transform](https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#stream_new_stream_transform_options)
option.

Additionally, the `.maxLength` and `.skipOverflow` options are implemented, which set limits on the internal
buffer size and the stream's behavior when the limit is exceeded. There is no limit unless `maxLength` is set. When
the internal buffer size exceeds `maxLength`, the stream emits an error by default. You may also set `skipOverflow` to
true to suppress the error and instead skip past any lines that cause the internal buffer to exceed `maxLength`.

Calling `.destroy` will make the stream emit `close`. Use this to perform cleanup logic

``` js
var splitFile = function(filename) {
  var file = fs.createReadStream(filename)

  return file
    .pipe(split2())
    .on('close', function() {
      // destroy the file stream in case the split stream was destroyed
      file.destroy()
    })
}

var stream = splitFile('my-file.txt')

stream.destroy() // will destroy the input file stream
```

# NDJ - Newline Delimited Json

`split2` accepts a function which transforms each line.

``` js
fs.createReadStream(file)
  .pipe(split2(JSON.parse))
  .on('data', function (obj) {
    //each chunk now is a js object
  })
  .on("error", function(error) {
    //handling parsing errors
  })
```

However, in [@dominictarr](https://github.com/dominictarr) [`split`](https://github.com/dominictarr/split) the mapper
is wrapped in a try-catch, while here it is not: if your parsing logic can throw, wrap it yourself. Otherwise, you can also use the stream error handling when mapper function throw.
